Bell peppers are colorful and flavorful vegetables, highly versatile in the kitchen due to their sweet or slightly spicy taste. They are primarily grown in Campania, Sicily, and Lazio, and are available year-round. The main varieties include La Muyo, California Wonder, Corno Bue, and Friggitelli, each with different shape and flavor characteristics.

Rich in vitamins A and C, fiber, and antioxidants, bell peppers are perfect for salads, baked dishes, grilling, or frying. Ideal for adding color and flavor to meals, they are a staple ingredient in Mediterranean cuisine.
